they are french and originally derived from greek
Centi- is bigger than milli- Centi means 1/100th i.e 1cm = 1/100m, 1cl = 1/100l Milli- means 1/1000th i.e 1mm = 1/1000m, 1ml = 1/1000l
micro - one millionth (0.000001)centi - one hundreth (0.01)Kilo - one thousand (1,000)Mega - one million (1,000,000)milli - one thousandth (0.001)
It stands for the units in the metric system.Kilo(meters)Hecto(meters)Deka(meters)Meters (which is your base)Deci(meters)Centi(meters)Milli(meters)
Centi- = one hundredth Milli- = one thousandth Micro- = one millionth
denci is not an SI prefix. centi = 0.01 or one hundredth kilo = 1000 = thousand milli = 0.001 = one thousandth.
kilo, hecto, deka, 1 unit, deci, centi, milli, micro, nano, pico

No, Kilometer is. Kilo, Hecto, Deci, Base(meter, liter), Deca, Centi, Milli
KHDBDCM=Kilo, Hecto, Deca, Base, Deci, Centi, Milli 783000 centigrams
kilo hecto deka basic unit deci centi milli
Decimeter. From largest to smallest: kilo hecto deca UNIT deci centi milli
KHDBDCM Kilo, Hecto, Deca, Base, Deci, Centi, Milli 2564 grams
Kilograms. The metric system prefixes are as follows: Kilo- Hecto- Deka- Base unit Deci- Centi- Milli- Kilo- is the largest and milli- is the smallest.
There are 10 hecto meters in 1 kilometer because if you follow Kilo Hecto Deca Unit Deci Centi Milli you have to go back from kilo to hecto 1 space and add a zero.
Yes, the order goes: kilo hecto deca Unit - mLg deci centi milli
When you are converting from a unit to the next smaller unit where the difference is a factor of 10: kilo - hecto, hecto - deka deka - unit unit - deci deci- centi centi - milli Other prefices involve steps of 1000.
